1. Knowledge

We Americans love to see immediate results. We love fast food because it’s – well, fast. We want quick results from exercise and diet. We take power (quick) naps, and we expect our photographs to be developed in under an hour. We’re thirsty. We’re impatient.

I love knowledge that resists “speed learning,” knowledge that one gains only by living a full life. I love the memories and connections that make up the fabric of a mind having lived. I love also the type of knowledge that can be had only by digging and thinking, that which is gathered not from books but rather discovered by the interested mind.

Day 1 Guide

Take your time. Be patient. Look for similarities and differences. Ask yourself questions. Reawaken those desires that once had you flying.
